Ogoki Learning Systems Inc. Ojibway App has made the Ethnos Project website for the advocacy of social projects to affect social change!
“Our small company out of Sandy Bay First Nation in Manitoba has affected social change and is helping save our Ojibway language. We have put a pin on the map. We are affecting social change internationally!” – Darrick Glen Baxter
The Ethnos Project is an advocacy blog and information resource focused on the ways that information and communications technologies (ICTs) are being used around the world to
- affect social change,
- sustain and stimulate the rapidly disappearing traditions and languages of Indigenous peoples, and
- improve the quality of life of people on their own cultural terms.
This site is for scholars, activists, government agencies, non-governmental cultural organizations, Indigenous groups, and others interested in the use of ICTs for Indigenous knowledge management (IKM), development (ICT4D), social change, and other mindful solutions.
